Roadrunner is the worst label ever, hands down.

And I was actually making fun of them, yo.

died20times

i wouldnt say worst ever. i mean yea, they do suck but there are far worse labels out there. roadrunner has atleast a couple of good bands.

lifter

you just dont know your metal ben. roadrunner used to be one of the best labels, they have some of the best bands like exhorder, DEATH, old sepultura, the list goes on...

ben

I didnt say they used to be the best label, i said they're the worst now. big difference.  and yea sepulturaaaaa

I'd say the best band on there now is Chimaira

Malpractice

even in the nu metal heyday Roadrunner was still a pretty solid label it wasn't until like 1998-99 when they started fucking over bands like Earth Crisis,and Vision Of Disorder and later on Glassjaw, and then eventually even their core roster like Fear Factory,Sepultura,Machine Head,etc and then they merged with Island records and everything went to hell they even started fucking over bands that sell records like Slipknot and focused full attention on bands like Nickelback. Now all they ever sign is typical Metal/hardcore stuff and a couple run of the mill nu metal bands here and there and continue to take as much money as possible from past bands on the label.

Chimaira...woah...no.  Still Remains or Trivium. hell, even 36 Crazyfists are better than Chimaira.

Yes to Still Remains (unsure why they're at RoadRunner though) and no about the Chimaira statement

Hey, bitches.

Just got home from London. Hope you guys are alright.

These ar the cd's i bought in London:
Converge - Petitioning the empty sky (re-issue)
Converge - When forever comes crashing (re-issue)
Converge - Caring and killing
Converge - Unloved and weeded out
Norma Jean - O God, the aftermath
Underoath - They are only chasing safety

So i'm pretty happy. Even though the cleaning lady at our hotel stole fucking £30 from me!!!

Cheers all.

If you don't mind me asking, how do you find out if they have been ripped?

I've been looking for a site with info like this for a while now.

Yea the re-mastered versions are allready on the web.  I'll probably get them later today.

th reissues are very nice, the artwork and linear notes are cool and the sound is top, especially on saddest day aye
